cobramad Member 824 Member For: 19y 9m 10d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 05/09/10 02:25 AM Share Posted 05/09/10 02:25 AM How different is the FG throttle body wiring configuration anyway? Surely it isnt totally out of the ballpark getting it to work with BA/BF PCM's..? Anyone got the factory manual?Mal K Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/64843-fg-manifold-conversion/page/7/#findComment-1037549 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EGOXRT Guests Posted 05/09/10 06:05 AM Share Posted 05/09/10 06:05 AM Completely different. What's the issue with using the BA throttle body anyway, it all fits and clears the bonnet.

cobramad Member 824 Member For: 19y 9m 10d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 05/09/10 06:52 AM Share Posted 05/09/10 06:52 AM Its not a biggie to use the BA/BF, just that the FG is a clean bolt-up, without reflanging the stock plenum to suit. Love to see just how different the config is after all. Mind you, they do look totally different to boot..

Guest EGOXRT Guests Posted 05/09/10 07:02 AM Share Posted 05/09/10 07:02 AM The FG hasn't got a seperate TPS for starters... Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/64843-fg-manifold-conversion/page/7/#findComment-1037602 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest EGOXRT Guests Posted 06/10/10 09:37 AM Share Posted 06/10/10 09:37 AM (edited) I can tell you from the three I had, the one I fitted was as smooth as a baby's ass. The other two ranged from rough as guts to, could do with a clean up, consistency is pretty ordinary..
